Bronchial thermoplasty is a treatment for asthma. Whether during thermoplasty the airway wall fraction exposed to temperatures necessary to affect cells is sufficient to explain its histopathological impact is unclear. Airway smooth muscle and bronc... Read More about In vitro, in silico and in vivo study challenges the impact of bronchial thermoplasty on acute airway smooth muscle mass loss.
